Editorial Reviews:

While most homes have a pre-wired doorbell for the front entrance, for those that don't, using this wireless door chime module by Honeywell is a great solution. Other excellent applications would be for apartments, travel trailers, back entrances, garages, dorm rooms and offices. The bell push unit communicates with the chime module via radio frequency (RF) so no wires are required. There are multiple sounds available and tunes can be programmed to individual bell pushes (if others are added) to identify which doorbell is ringing. Additionally, there are visual indicators on the chime module which helps out those that are hard of hearing. The receiver chime unit can be free standing so you can take it wherever you go in the house, or it can be wall mounted with the included hardware. The bell push module is rated for outdoor use and has a UV resistant plastic housing with a rainproof push button. It can be mounted with included screws or double-sided tape. Each push module has also been individually coded to prevent interference with other transmitters such as PIR movement detectors and telephone ring detectors. The chime module requires three AA batteries for operation, sold separately.

Summary: Exactly as advertised!
Comment: We bought a house that is mainly concrete block and had no wired doorbell. The previous owners had used a wireless bell with some kind of repeater that was supposed to pick up the signal at the back of the house. The bell rang a few times on and off but generally didn't work, even with fresh batteries in each unique part of the system.
The Honeywell, in contrast, works perfectly, with a clear tone that can be set to be very loud or quite soft. It was easy to set up (install battery, choose tone, choose volume, and stick the button on the doorframe! Voila!) and is easy to use.
Note both the unit and the button are smaller than you might think from the photo. They are quite attractive. With the button, you have the option of installing with screws, but we just used the strong double-sided adhesive pad. The unit itself comes with a bracket for mounting on the wall, so it is out of our way --but if we're working out back, we can just grab it off the bracket and take it with us.
In short, exactly as advertised. I am so pleased!

Summary: Excellant Door Bell
Comment: We already have a wired electric door chime, however as we get older we find it harder to hear in the TV room located at the back of the house. We looked for a wireless door bell and tried one hat did not have the distance to operate properly. After extensive reviews at both the hardware and on the internet we settled on this door bell. In fact we purchased two sets so we could one in the TV room and one in the bedroom. They worked excellent. There are three rings available and if we had it to do over again we would opt for the upgraded model which has more more rings available. This unit is all wireless and very easy to install. In fact if you don't like where you place the unit just move it to another location which requires no further programing on your part.We love it!!

Summary: Temperature Range A Problem
Comment: This item works as a doorbell should, and was easy to install. However, on page 12 of the Instruction Manual the specifications indicate that the operating temperature of the push button is a maximum of 104 degrees. Since I live in an area that very often is above 105, and occasionally above 110, this might be a problem. I would not have bought this item if I had known the temperature restrictions.

Summary: The Modern Bell...
Comment: Hi guys. I'm the doorbell man. I've bought a whole lot of wireless doorbells over the years to use with our small business' drive-thru window. Wired doorbells have a tendency to get snatched, or demolished by cars traveling too close by, and wireless doorbells have all failed at various times for one reason or another.
Our last wireless doorbell died to a thing you wouldn't think would happen. The button broke. Literally, the button will not "push" anymore, or activate the transmitter.
I picked up this Honeywell to replace it, even though it is a bit more than the usual budget for such things. Sure, $40 is not much, but it is about twice what I normally pay. I was in a good mood and a $20 splurge was in order.
This little unit rocks. The transmitter (the push button part), once you could get it open (which is a bit of work with a screwdriver), is operated with a large disk battery. Range is good despite this battery, and I was impressed. Just to clarify, our business is a cinder block and steel girder building, and the unit is 25 feet away from the transmitter in line of sight, but through a small drive through window. Therefore, for my use, range is not a huge issue.
The button on the transmitter is made of rubber, like the buttons on a remote control, and this has advantages and disadvantages. Rubber buttons create less mechanical friction than those made of hard plastic, and therefore, are less likely to break than my previous button which broke for this reason. The disadvantage is that rubber gives way when you press on it, making it more difficult to tell if you have depressed the switch underneath the rubber.
This basically means you can have a "visitor" who pushes the doorbell and nothing happens. That is, if they press the doorbell too lightly to depress the switch, but they have pressed on the rubber hard enough for them to think it should work. There is a little line in the center which acts as a guide to where people should press, but if you don't see it and press far above or below the line, this also might not depress the switch. The designers noticed this flaw (I assume), and included an orange LED which lights up when the switch is pressed, and it is located at the top of the transmitter. This is helpful (but not foolproof), and practically useless if you have it oriented at eye level sideways, as I do. Still, it is good that they included this, and this should assist all but the most unassuming of visitors.
Sound wise, this is an excellent product. I personally feel that "ding-dong" is the all time reigning champion of doorbell noises, and this one really takes the cake. It sounds like a real bell, and with very good tonal quality. If you are a more complex person than I am, you might prefer the other two tones, which are more complex melodies. It doesn't have westminster, or the grandfather clock ring, though, but the other two are interesting, and visitors might stop by just to hear your bell ring, but I doubt it.
This bell is marketed to look modern, technological and fancy, and therefore, it has the required lights. There is a little "smoke black" cover in the front of the receiver which is removeable with little icons which show you which tone you are playing. They can be replaced if you wish to have multiple transmitters, to show which transmitter is transmitting. The burnt orange is somewhat modern look, but unless you have multiple transmitters, this is a bit of overkill. I seldom take a look at a doorbell to "see" if it is ringing. Yet, this feature might make it an option for hearing impared folks.
Overall, this product carries with it the caveat of missed rings because of button pressing issues. While most people wont experience this problem regularly, it is worth noting, and a possibility you will have to accept with this unit.
Yet, still a good product and recommended.
